        The Factory of Evil Spirits is a mysterious group working to bring about some sort of massive worldwide change. Perhaps they want war, or something far more sinister; no one seems to know. Most of their work comes in the form of perverse biological experiments and the design of horrifying new machines with miraculous powers of destruction. The Factory (known as the Akuma no Kojo in Japan) has been around for ages, though no one knows exactly how long. The only thing that is certain is that their actions ruin people's lives.
        The men in the picture above are Kristoph Hauser, Muni Hauser, and Nigel Simmons (aka Agent S). The Hauser brothers call him Blondie. They were the perpetrators of several kidnappings and destroyed an entire block of downtown Tokyo in the SOPI 2290 game. The father of the Hauser brothers was once a very intelligent, successful scientist for the Factory, but he failed once, and was executed before the boys' eyes. This is why the brothers were so determined to finish the project their father started. Nigel got involved in the Factory because he felt helpless in his life, and the group provided him a feeling of power. His own failures got his father, Link Simmons, murdered. He hoped to destroy everything and everyone who had ever brought him pain by the successful completion of the project he was working on with the Hausers, but they were all brought down by the combined efforts of many of the other characters. Muni is now dead, and Kristoph and Nigel are in police custody. I am sure the story is not over as long as they are alive.
        The Hausers' name and parts of their basic story was inspired by the character Muhni Hausen from the Urotsuki Doji series. Although I came up with him, my friend Karen took Muni Hauser over immediately and played him for the game. She gave him his wonderfully sadistic personality. He was a very fun baddie to play off of. Muni really wasn't that much taller than Nigel and Kristoph, so just consider him standing on a box. ~_^
        The three boys were assisted by the naughty android construct Mimi. She was mechanical inside, and synthetic genetic material outside (nicknamed "Goop"), with the DNA code of the Dophim twins, which was stolen during those kidnappings. That is why she looks like Dagger Dophim. Kristoph designed her to be an efficient, strong killer who enjoyed pain. She served the brothers well until death, when her head was blown off. Mimi had liquid metal claws she could retract into her arms when not in use; they came in very handy for restraining victims. I'm currently trying to find some way to bring another Mimi into the picture, since she was just so fun to play.
